REPORT

MOLANDS Pleasure anglers have had some terrific mixed nets of F1’s, crucians, skimmers and tench, fishing paste or pellet down the near shelf at 2 – 5 metres. The bigger carp along with tench to 6lb have been coming to the pellet or method feeder fished across to the island fishing tight but dropping down the shelf as bites slow down. Best pegs are 1 – 5, 10 – 19, 29 – 31, 37, 43 – 46 and 52 – 60.

GEARYS The slightly deeper water along the high bank on pegs 7 – 13 and across the far side from 30 – 36 have been the better pegs. Carp to 15lb and bream to 3lb have featured in catches this week with the pellet waggler, straight lead and pellet and paste or pellet on the pole all accounting for decent nets.

LITTLE GEARYS The fish may not be huge but they certainly make up for it with quality and quantity. F1’s from ½lb – 4lb, carp to 5lb, tench, skimmers and lots of crucians being caught at the moment. Paste or pellet down the near margin, shallow pole and pellet and method feeder across to the island have all been producing some cracking nets this week. Best pegs are 7 – 12, 15, 19, 21 and 24 – 28.

GRATUITIES If you want to catch tench, Gratuities is the pool with lots of fish from
1 – 4lb and the odd fish over 6lb coming out. Carp from 1 – 3lb also showing in numbers along with crucians and skimmers. Best tactic is to fish meat, corn or a bed of micro pellets either on the feeder or the pole at 10 – 13 metres.

ANNIVERSARIES Plenty of silver fish coming to caster, maggot or small expander pellets with every peg capable of producing mixed nets of skimmers, roach and rudd. The tench and carp have
